I have two 2007 R's, produced 11 months apart according to their VIN tags. The air box lids are very slightly different fitting between the two bikes. The lid on the later bike does not fit as close to the frame as the lid on the earlier bike. I also have an anodized aluminum lid from a 2002 VRSCA covered with a bra, and it fits both bikes better than the lid from the later production Rs stock lid. That is how much production variability there is on this part.

The problem I'm having is that I want a new cover, but the price for a new one is on par with a paint job. Every cover I've found on Ebay for less than 200.00 has a dent or scratches in it and would still need to be re-painted.

I think I may start my CF tin swap and say the hell with it.

What color are you looking for? I have acouple airbox covers laying around.
